    Aero wheel hubcaps replaced with center caps and black lug nut covers

    If you are looking to buy and install the Tesla Model 3 Wheel Locks, know that the lug nut covers fit perfectly over the wheel locks (versus the MX wheel locks that can't fit a lug nut cover over them). Picture below.

    Here's the picture I found (I believe on page 3 or 4 of this thread), with the partially removed panel.

    Yeah, those panels. No sliding, just pull out firmly, but you start from the back of it and move your way toward the front. Somebody had a picture of them earlier in the post I believe, I'll see if I can find it and direct you to it.

    Best to remove the black side panels, on both passenger and driver side. Those are easily removable, pull from the back (at end of the console), towards the front. It uses the same brass clips. Then it's just a pull uplike you said. I only removed the passanger side panel and I was fighting it a...

    Dashcam Install Help

    Yeah, I looked into those. I actually had one in my Taurus way way back... They all seem bulky (not that I'm using that space for other stuff anyway). I thought I could get a "cleaner" looking install if I tap into a wire in the pasanger footwell.

    Dashcam Install Help

    Looking to eventually put in a Blackvue system, but I also want to install an LED strip kit, which I plan to take power from a switched source for. I don't want to occupy my 12V outlet with that, so looking for alternatives

    What would be the right fuse for his install? I'm asking both for the direct to 12V battery connection, as well as for the switched connection.
